Douglas Lyons said: “I am beyond excited for Table 17 to make its UK debut at the legendary Kiln Theatre with this dynamite cast, directed by my friend and recent Tony Award-winner Zhailon Levingston. After our sold-out NYC and Los Angeles engagements, we are building an all new production for British audiences. With personality and comedy chops all in their back pockets, this UK cast is not to be missed.”
Zhailon Levingston added: “What a dream it is to bring this beautiful play to the Kiln. I’m So excited to lead a new configuration of cast members through the hilarious and poignantly romantic waters of Table 17. London, meet your new favorite threesome!”
Kiln Theatre Artistic Director and CEO Amit Sharma said: “I’m totally thrilled to be bringing Douglas Lyons’ Table 17 to Kiln for its UK premiere, alongside our fantastic collaborative partners Mark Cortale and Jamie Wilson Productions. Table 17 is a brilliant night out. Marisha, Jamael and Michael are such a fabulous cast and they are going to have you absolutely howling with laughter. With the very brilliant director Zhailon Levingston at the helm, I honestly can’t wait for the first performance!”
Table 17 centres on former couple Jada and Dallas, who reunite for dinner years after ending their engagement. As they revisit seven years of shared history, the pair must decide whether their relationship deserves a second chance or whether the weight of the past is too much to overcome.
Described as a sharp and hilarious romantic comedy, the play explores love, regret and the possibility of starting over.
